A little more about me:
Richard is an interdisciplinarian and has taught and published in the areas of theatre, radio, literature, film, computer games, graphic narratives, and popular music. He is the founding co-editor of the international Journal of Adaptation in Film and Performance, a peer-reviewed publication which combines outstanding academic articles with viewpoints from industry practitioners. As a practitioner in his own right, Richard has translated scripts from French into English and has directed stage plays in the UK and US as well as radio plays for broadcast. He has undertaken extensive work into Grand Guignol, a distinctive form of horror theatre, and has toured productions to international festivals and conferences and for public Halloween events.
Richard has frequently appeared on BBC and international radio and is interviewed on the DVD of Tim Burton’s Sweeney Todd. Richard has also taught workshops on commedia dell’arte and horror theatre to school/college groups and youth theatres.
